Tanzanai Family Safari

Short Overview

A Tanzania safari is a delight for all ages, and as such is an ideal family holiday. The excitement of the adventure is truly shared, allowing parents, grandparents and children to treasure memories for ever after. Every safari is so different, each wildlife moment is so distinct, that even old timers cannot claim to have seen it all before…

We’ve created many fabulous Tanzania family holidays – however, careful consideration and planning is required on many fronts when putting together an ideal family itinerary. The availability of family suites (or extra beds), child-friendly activities and child special rates varies enormously from lodge to lodge
